SUMMARY:Working Creatively with Creatures/Angel Cards by Lawrence Capon - December 13th
DESCRIPTION:This engaging and experiential workshop explores the use of angel cards\, symbolic toys\, and imaginative creatures as supportive tools within counselling sessions. Designed for trainee and practising counsellors\, the session offers practical ways to integrate these creative elements into therapeutic work with both children and adults. \nThe workshop will cover how and when to introduce these tools\, setting safe boundaries\, and adapting their use to different client ages and needs. We’ll also explore the therapist’s own response to symbolic work\, including how to hold space for the unexpected or the deeply personal. \nThrough hands-on practice\, discussion\, and reflective exercises\, participants will gain confidence in using these tools to enhance the therapeutic relationship\, stimulate dialogue\, and deepen emotional insight. No prior experience with angel cards or symbolic play is required—just a willingness to be open\, creative\, and attuned to the client’s process. Recommendation that you are on at least a level 4 counselling course or the equivilent.
